I will have to go try in a few minutes after this show then. It's still BS tho that this shit happens ever year when a big game comes out . It will happen again when the next Black ops like cod comes in the fall... Just terrible on next gen they can't even get the servers to be right and handle all the major traffic.
I did the whole power reset thing. I'm pretty sure that did the trick. Now install / update all the games I got.. Just a little rough start and annoyed with the servers as always. But seriously M$oft needs to really get their shit together and this server BS crap. I chatted with a live member and the person basically it was due to so many people trying to play Titan Fall :fp:
Addictive as hell. I played probably 6 hours straight in the campaign yesterday, which being a multiplayer campaign, that's probably the longest I've played a true multiplayer game not named Halo since probably Modern Warfare 2. I can't even play COD MP anymore because of lag and all the camping and other douchebaggery. Halo, I still have fun in my primary modes that I prefer to play. Titanfall? Playing a full multiplayer experience, holy fuck is that a fun game.Quote:

You're not just limited to where you can go on the ground like in COD. You can wherever you want to thanks to wall running. If you want to get the vantage point of being up on the roof of one of the highest buildings in the map, there's a way to get there thanks to wall running, you just have to find it. The entire map is opened up to all out warfare, both vertically and horizontally.
And nothing gets more fun than calling in your Titan and going stomping around the map stepping on everyone and melee'ing them with your gigantic ass fist of steel. Titanfall is easily a game that I will play for years. It as joined Halo in tied for first place as my favorite game series, and I've only had it for one day.
Halo sucked. Never got the appeal. :)
Titanfall is wicked fun. I only had time to play for about 1.5 hours last night, and that was the most MP online I've played of anything in over a year for sure and the longest I've played in random online lobby stuff in over 2 years at least.
The pace is frenetic, but you can also "sneak" around by the wallrunning and getting to vertical highpoints. Dropping down on Titans or escaping if you are in trouble works well. The Titan execution is entertaining.
I can see playing this game a LOT, plus it was easy to load into and get into games, plus they ran smoothly.
Setting your Titan to guard is damn fun in Hardpoint.
Thanks man, enjoy :up:
I did find the titanfall thread as well.
I love dropping down on Titans. I jumped on Titans for the Rodeo challenge probably 30+ times in the couple hours I was playing yesterday. It is so FUN to be playing as a pilot, jump into the back of a Titan, rip open it's access panel and sit there unloading your gun into it and heavily damaging and/or destroying it. And that's the thing I love, it's so balanced. Instead of having Titans being these unstoppable things that you can only destroy with another Titan, it's possibly to destroy a Titan while running around as a pilot by doing the Rodeo maneuver. Titans can squash pilots by simply walking/running over top of them or using melee on them, and pilots can destroy Titans thanks to Rodeo. The balance of this game is amazing. Something COD could only dream of.Quote:

Absolutely unbelievable deal. $100 off and free Titanfall.
Wow, that is super tempting. How long is that promo good for?
It's probably not supposed to work like that, so I'm guessing not long. :D
Yeah, I think it's already fixed. I tried it just for shits and giggles and it said it was an invalid promo code.
Haha, ok.
Agreed! I love that, so far as I'm no expert like OU apparently, that there is a counter to pretty much everything and nothing just straight out dominates.Quote:

Microsoft Plans to be 'Direct and Honest' With Fans
Spencer said Microsoft could have handled the Xbox One reveal more effectively last summer.

Some of the features of April update:

What’s new in this release?
*Game and app saves and updates. A game save progress bar will show you the status of your game saves. You will also be able to easily tell what games and apps are being updated or have been updated recently.
*Friends improvements. Notifications will be added to see when favorites and friends sign in to Xbox Live. This actually was one of the most frequently requested features from the first preview wave and we made it a priority to include it in the April update. Also, friends who are in multiplayer will be identified in the friends list. We’ll also add the ability to view friends’ most popular apps.
*Blu-ray 50 Hz video output support for content recorded at 50 Hz will resolve video playback issues some Xbox Live members in Europe are experiencing.
*Kinect voice and motion improvements will continue to fine tune the quality and reliability of Xbox One commands.
*Improved GameDVR video quality through compression algorithm improvements.
*Updates to Xbox One device management to address issues controlling TVs, set top boxes, and receivers that our customers have reported.
*New audio settings to tune how much volume is lowered when Kinect is used in communications.

If you're going to, do it soon. The code takes $50 off and the price is supposed to be $499. For some reason, the code still works but it's priced at $449, so the code is taking it down to $399. Damn good deal. Hopefully a good many people take advantage of this. It's a great system.
Already done and done.Quote:

:clap:
Welcome to the dark side! Pro tip - hook up the Kinect. It's amazing with voice controls. I haven't even used it for motion yet, nor will I...ever.
This should have been the price all along. I feel as though I should feel ripped off since I paid $500 for it with no game not even 6 months ago, but eh. :D
